New drug shows rare promise against advanced breast cancer

There may be some serious hope on the horizon for those fighting breast cancer thanks to a new drug.

Following testing in almost 200 patients, scientists say it targets aggressive tumors like a guided missile.

The trial shrank 61% of tumors and wiped out 6% of them.

It’s been so successful, the FDA is fast-tracking approval and could have it ready by next year.

According to CBS News, however, the drug does come with serious side effects. One such side effect was severe lung injury that resulted in four deaths.
